48 Interesting Comparison Photos That Give Us a Fresh Perspective on Things

Most of us assume dinosaurs were the biggest creatures ever to roam this planet. However, that title goes to another animal that coexists with us today. The blue whale is the largest known animal to have ever lived on Earth. Blue whales are an average of 100 feet long and weigh over 400,000 pounds.

According to BBC Earth, that equals about 2,670 human men. This photo gives a visual example of the blue whale’s massive and impressive size. A tiny human trailing behind this majestic animal is in the far left corner. It’s pretty humbling to realize how small we are compared to one of the most interesting animals on the planet.
